About Korean fish cakes

Korean fish cakes, or "eomuk" (also called "odeng"), are a popular dish in Korean cuisine made from a blend of ground white fish, starch, flour, and seasonings such as salt, sugar, and garlic. The mixture is shaped into patties, sticks, or sheets, then steamed or fried. Widely enjoyed in soups, stir-fries, or as street food on skewers, these versatile fish cakes are praised for their savory taste and chewy texture. While they provide a good source of protein and essential amino acids from the fish content, they can also be high in sodium and may contain added preservatives or fillers, depending on the brand. For a healthier option, look for minimally processed varieties with simple ingredients. Korean fish cakes are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
